 Across the
Furnal Planes
Original Release: November 2022
This section details items a character may
find during an adventure that involves
fiends or a fiendish plane of existence.
Details about the Furnal Planes or the
agon fiends referenced can be found in the Bleeding Heart
original compendium.

Archfiend’s Armaments
This group of powerful sentient weapons belong to
the archfiends of the Furnal Planes. The archfiends go
to great lengths to find them if they are missing.

 Soulsnare
Weapon (longsword), legendary (requires attunement)
The blade of the sword opens up in a fiery maw, spewing
with hellfire that binds a slain creature to its service.
Despite appearances, the specters answer not to the
wielder but to the entity trapped within the weapon, their
spirits broken by the violent fate that befelled them.
Once attuned to this sword, your alignment drifts one
step toward lawful evil every 2d4 days. You also cannot
voluntarily end your attunement to the sword. If you
are targeted by a spell that ends a curse, you end your
attunement.
Sentience. Soulsnare is a sentient lawful evil weapon
with an Intelligence of 15, a Wisdom of 15, and a
Charisma of 16. It has hearing and darkvision out to a
range of 120 feet unimpeded by magical darkness. The
sword communicates telepathically with its wielder and
can read, speak, and understand Infernal.
An ambitious devil named Zaelith lives inside
longsword. It had been trapped there by an archdevil
centuries ago for a debt for which the devil must
reclaim souls to pay off. It mechanically plans for the Soulsnare
corruption of good minds and revels when the work
is done. If the devil grows dissatisfied, it can take
control of any specters resurrected by the sword
for its purposes.
Joined Spirit. While you hold the sword, you
have the following benefits:

●● You can read, speak, and write Infernal.

●● You gain darkvision out to 120 feet if you
don’t already have it.

Ashmarble Slab
Wondrous item, treasure, uncommon
Ashmarble is a sedimentary mineral native to the Furnal
Plane of the Cinderdeep, formed from ash through
the application of heat, pressure, and blood. They are
generally found in the depths of the Ashkasm where
volcanic ash collects. Ashmarble is used as a protective
coating fiendish armors.
While you hold this ashmarble slab, you can use an
action to throw it at a point within 20 feet of you, causing
it to shatter it into a cloud of ash. The cloud fills a
5-foot radius sphere centered on the point and is lightly
obscured. A creature inside the cloud has resistance
to fire damage. The cloud lasts for 1 minute or until
dissipated by any light wind (at least 10 miles per hour).

Bloodstone Chunk Bonecage

Wondrous item, treasure, uncommon
Bloodstone is a crystalline mineral native to the Furnal
Plane of the Cinderdeep, formed within the mountains
of the Bloodpeaks through a combination of intense
heat, pressure, and the bloodstained souls of the damned.
While holding a piece of bloodstone to the light, one
can see suspended pieces of cardiovascular viscera.
Bloodstone is used in the forging of fiendish weapons.
While you hold this chunk of bloodstone, you can use
an action to shatter it and regain 1d4+1 expended hit dice.

Bonecage
Armor (plate), very rare (requires attunement)
The crackling of growing bones can be heard from this
armor while in absolute silence, still retaining the vitality
of their fiendish origins. These grisly items are usually
crafted from slain fiends by veteran rangers of the
Fiendish Mask conclave who trade their blood for added
protection. They become often more fiend and humanoid
as a result.
This armor initially appears as jagged shards of fiendish
bone. To attune to it, you must stab the bone shard into
your abdomen and endure the pain for the duration of the Circlet of the Contract

Fiendish Talismans
Wondrous item, uncommon
These talismans are crafted from a body part of fiend
either living or dead, their innate magical power
channeled through the object. Such creatures rarely give
up such commodities and must be either bought from a
devil, won from an agon, or stolen from a demon.
These talismans are crafted from the magical remains Fiend’s Claw Talisman

 Hellfire Belcher
Weapon (hand cannon), exotic, rare (requires attunement)
This bulky hand cannon is typically wielded by large
fiends like a firearm in one hand, and claiming one is no
small feat. The origins of firearms can be partially traced
to the Furnal Planes where black powder is abundant,
particularly for cultures where the substance would not Hellfire Belcher
be normally available. However, this weapon shoots large
pockets of fire instead of the physical ammunition.
Heavy. Characters with a Strength score of 14 or
lower have disadvantage on attacks made with this
weapon.
Exotic. You are only proficient with
this weapon if you have the appropriate
background or training (at GM’s discretion).
Hand Cannon. The hand cannon is an
exotic weapon that can only be used by those
familiar with their design. It is a type of ranged
martial weapon that bears traits of a firearm and
cannon, capable of firing large heavy projectiles at targets
in a low arc. The hand cannon has the Heavy, Loading,
Two-Handed, and Ammunition properties with a range of
50/100. It normally deals 1d12 bludgeoning damage on
a hit, but this weapon’s Hell-Forged property changes its
damage type to something else.
Hell-Forged. You have a +1 bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with this magic weapon, which deals
fire damage instead of bludgeoning damage. Additionally,
the weapon magically creates ammunition in its chamber
immediately before you fire it.
Flame Spewer. This weapon has 5 charges and

Meathook
Weapon (sickle), rare
Butcher demons of the Black Rift use a variety of butcher
tools including the prevalent meat hook, aptly named,
“Meathook.” Some are enchanted to impale creatures on
their own, making them especially deadly weapons.
This sickle is attached to a 5-foot length of chain normally
held in the other hand. While you wield this sickle with
two hands, it gains the Two-handed and Reach properties.
Flesh Ripper. You have a +1 to attack and damage
rolls made with this magic weapon. Immediately after
you score a critical hit with this sickle against an organic
target, the target takes 2d4 slashing damage.
Fiendish Hunt. You can snare distant creatures with
this weapon. As an action, you can throw this sickle at a
creature you can see within 20 feet of you and the chain Meathook
magically extends to permit this length. Make a ranged
attack roll against the target as normal. If you hit a target,
you can choose to pull it up to 15 feet toward you if it
is no more than one size larger than you. If this was a
critical hit, you can also knock prone a target that you pull.

Obsidian Cull
Weapon (scythe), exotic, uncommon (requires
attunement)
This scythe bears resemblance to the popular belief in the
Grim Reaper, though its original fiendish wielders adhere
to no such romantic fantasy. If you see this scythe, you
must run — such shadow fiends will not hesitate to strip
flesh from bone and devour the weak.
Exotic. You are only proficient with this weapon if you
have the appropriate background or training (at GM’s
discretion).
Scythe. The scythe is a martial melee weapon with
the Heavy, Two-handed, and Reach properties. Because
of its shape and length, it deals 1d8 bludgeoning damage
to targets that are within 5 feet of you, or 1d10 slashing
damage on a hit to targets that are more than 5 feet away
from you.
Culling Blade. This weapon has 3 charges and regains
1d3 expended charges daily at dusk. You can use an
action to expend a charge, swinging this scythe with two
hands and emitting a 20-foot cone of ravenous shadow
that culls the weak. Creatures in the cone are affected
in ascending order of their current hit points (ignoring
unconscious creatures). Starting with the creature that
has the lowest current hit points, a creature must succeed
Obsidian Cull
on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 3d10
necrotic damage. If the creature succeeds on the save, the
creature with the next lowest current hit points makes
that saving throw. Once a creature takes this damage, the
effect ends; all remaining creatures are unaffected. You
can then teleport to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of
the creature that took this damage.

 Nonmagical Plants & Herbs
Each plant presented in this section has special
properties that determine their potential botanical or
herbalist uses, detailed below.

Harvest
Each plant has a Harvest property that details the
procedures a character must follow to obtain the primary
ingredient from the plant. Mundane plants typically
require an action to cut or pick, but complex ones like the
kingslock may involve an ability check and a required
duration. This property may alternatively offer suggestions
for environmental hazards characters must overcome to
obtain this plant.
For arboreal plants, each tree listed includes a felling
table that describes the ability check and possible
duration required to chop it down. Wood from the
primary trunk is considered the most useful ingredient for
further crafting. Branch wood is generally easier to obtain,
but objects crafted from it may produce a weaker effect
compared to objects crafted from trunk wood
(GM’s discretion).

manipulate, pick up, stow, or retrieve an object up to 20
feet away from you. The drone cannot carry more than
10 pounds.
Sensor (Rare). While this red disc-shaped drone is active,
you are always aware of the location of any hidden or
invisible creature within 20 feet of you. This awareness
does not allow you to see such creatures.
Shield (Uncommon). You gain a minor photon shield

This metal prosthetic replaces a lost limb — a hand, an
arm, a foot, a leg, or a similar body part. You must spend
the duration of the attunement period attaching this metal
prosthetic to an appropriate place on your body. While

including simulating senses. You can detach or reattach it
as an action, and it can’t be removed against your will.
Prosthetic Types. Each prosthetic has a set of
properties chosen from the options below. Its rarity
is determined by the number of properties it has as
follows: common (1 property), uncommon (2 properties),
rare (3 properties), or very rare (4 properties). A skilled
technician may be able to add more properties to a
prosthetic, at GM’s discretion.

or severance of a limb, both you and the anchor are

Spines from the ragebristle urchin carry with them a
deadly venom that causes a victim’s heart to pound
uncontrollably. They deter gulls and cod from preying on
the urchins in the wild, but capable assassins use them to
cause unbridled chaos.
You deal an additional 1d4 poison damage to creatures
you hit with this dart. A creature that takes this damage
must make a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed
save, the creature rages and must immediately use its
reaction to move in a random direction as far as it can
up to half its speed. If the creature is a barbarian who
has the Rage feature, it must expend a use of it. When
an affected creature ends this movement, it makes one
melee weapon attack against a creature within reach.
Once you have made an attack with this dart,
regardless of whether it hit or missed, you must use an
action to carefully retrieve it without pricking yourself.

 Ambuscade Stone

The Ranger’s Guide

Original Release: September 2022
This section details items best suited for use by a
ranger character, though some can be used by others.
Adventurers passing through a conclave’s domain may
find some of these items along the way. The original
compendium also features rich backgrounds and
subclass options for some of the conclaves presented.

Each item is presented in alphabetical order. An item’s
description gives the item’s name and category; if the item
is magical, its rarity and its properties are also listed.

 Broach of Primordials
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
Ranger)
Four tiny elemental spirits live inside this broach, bound
to the ranger that attunes to it. Rangers of the Primordial
Shepherd conclave wear these broaches to augment their
innate elemental capabilities.
While you are attuned to this broach, you know the
hunter’s mark spell and can cast it by expending a spell
slot as normal.
Whenever you cast this spell, you can tap into the
power within your broach and surround your weapon
with elemental energy. Choose air, earth, fire, or water.
The extra damage you deal with hunter’s mark becomes
thunder if you chose air, bludgeoning if you chose earth,
fire if you chose fire, or cold if you chose water.

Daybeak
Daybreak
Weapon (longbow), rare (requires attunement by a Ranger
of 3rd-level or higher)
Enchanted by celestials for the Dawn Seeker rangers
that glide among them, this weapon has seen countless
righteous battles and betrayals. It has served as symbols
of hope in the past, its arrival heralded by a blazing arrow
arcing over a battlefield. Even normally, each arrow fired
from this weapon leaves a brief trail of softly glimmering
sparks.
Ammunition fired from this magic bow counts as magical
for purposes of overcoming resistance or immunity to
nonmagical attacks and damage.
Natural Light. While attuned to this bow, you can cast
the light cantrip from the bow. Immediately before you
fire a piece of ammunition from the bow, you can also
cast light on the piece of ammunition (no action required).
Dawn Smite. Immediately before you make a ranged
attack roll with this weapon, you can expend one of your
spell slots to infuse the fired ammunition with primal
light (no action required). You deal extra radiant damage
to a target you hit or half as much radiant damage to a
target you miss. The extra damage is 2d10 for a 1st-level
spell slot, plus 1d10 for each spell level higher than 1st,
to a maximum of 5d10. If your target is a plant, any extra
damage it takes is halved.

Druid’s Pouch
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
Ranger)
While you are attuned to this pouch, you know the
druidcraft and produce flame cantrips. Additionally, you
can cast the goodberry spell once from the pouch without
expending a spell slot, and regain the ability to do so at
next dawn.

Equilibrium Eye of the Primeval Mother

 Furnal Claws
Furnal Claws
Weapon Set (war picks), very rare (requires attunement
by a Ranger or a fiend-themed spellcaster)
The rangers of the Fiendish Mask conclave sometimes
take more than the infernal magic of the fiends with
which they consort. Such weapons are horrific fusions
of blade and flesh, forming awful weapons that whisper
unintelligible Infernal. Those who touch such weapons
eventually grow accustomed to their heat and psychic toll.
These magic weapons come in a pair. While attuned to
them, you can wield each of them as if they have the Light
property.
Hell-Forged. You have a +1 bonus to attack and
damage rolls made with these weapons and deal an extra
1d4 fire damage to creatures you hit with them. If you hit
a target with one of these weapons and hit again with the
other in the same turn through engaging in two-weapon
fighting, the extra fire damage for that subsequent attack
becomes 2d4.
Fiendish Magic. While holding these weapons, you
can cast one of the following spells from them using
your spell save DC, without providing spell components:
command, hellish rebuke (cast at 2nd-level), scorching ray.
Once a spell has been cast from these weapons, that spell
can’t be cast again until the next dusk.

Fury Reaver
Weapon (greatsword), uncommon (requires attunement
by a Ranger)
A weapon of interwoven metal and stone, its runes were
inscribed by the Rune Callers, rangers familiar with the
lands and customs of giants. This weapon hungers for the
defeat of its sworn foes, which each Rune Caller takes
upon joining the conclave.
When you attune to this magic weapon and each time
you gain a ranger level while attuned to this weapon, your
Fury Reaver height increases by 1d4 inches. This change in height
slowly reverts over the course of an hour if you end your
attunement to the weapon.
Relentless Focus. When you use this weapon to attack
your favored enemy, you have a bonus to your attack and
damage rolls equal to your proficiency bonus.

Hunter’s Cap
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
Ranger)
Speed and stealth are often crucial for a ranger’s work. The
tip and shape of this cap ensures a ranger’s mystical focus
never wavers, always ready for battle at a moment’s notice.
While attuned to this cap, you know the hunter’s mark
Hunter’s Cap spell. On your first turn of each combat, when you hit a
creature with a weapon attack, you can immediately cast
hunter’s mark on the creature using your own available
spell slots, no action required.

Reignbow Reignbow
Weapon (shortbow), legendary (requires attunement by a
Ranger)
This weapon was crafted by master bowyers of the Elder
Guardians, made for a time before the world cosmology
was fully explored. Each of the seven conclaves gifted
a special arrow and imbued the bow with their unique
color of druidic magic. Together, the weapon empowers
its chosen wielder to repel even the most dangerous of
threats from the planes.
You have a +2 bonus to attack and damage rolls made
with this magic bow. Ammunition fired from this
weapon counts as magical for purposes of overcoming
resistance or immunity to nonmagical attacks and
damage. Additionally, you gain a +1 bonus to your ranger
spell save DC.
Arrows of the Elders. This weapon is magically
intertwined with seven unique arrows, each marked with
a color that represents each conclave. When first found,
the GM decides how many arrows the bow is currently
intertwined with and whether the remaining arrows (if
any) need be found.
Once per turn, in place of an attack you make with
this weapon, you can summon an intertwined arrow into
your hand and fire it. The arrow produces a unique effect
when fired and disappears when it ends. Once used, that
arrow cannot be summoned again until the next dawn.
Any save DC caused by these arrows equals your ranger

Roquelaure of Arrows
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a
Ranger)
You can use this cloak as if it were a quiver, sheathing
arrows into flat pockets in its interior lining. The cloak
can store up to 50 arrows at a time.
Arrow Spray. As a ranger, you know a secret technique
passed between conclaves. If you have at least 10 arrows
stored in this cloak, you can use an action to forcefully
swing the hem of the cloak, launching those arrows in a
15-foot cone in a direction of your choice. Each creature
in the cone must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw
against your spell save DC or take 1d8 piercing damage.

Signal Token
Wondrous item, common
Ranger teams often use signal tokens when hunting in
dense environments where visibility is greatly impaired.
These tokens allow them to coordinate strikes and
ambushes without risking alerting prey with sound.
Signal tokens come in pairs. Any Tiny object can be
enchanted to become a signal token by a specialized
mage and thus such a token can take any shape. While
you hold one token, you can use a bonus action to activate
it, causing both paired tokens to briefly emit dim light
and vibrate silently, even if they are on different planes of
existence.
Once you use this property, you cannot use it again for
1 hour.

Stormcall
Weapon (shortbow), very rare (requires attunement by a
chaotic character)
The strange properties of this bow renders its
ammunition untouched by the wild sway of storms. Each
time an arrow is fired from it, the bowstring continue to
vibrate and emanate a low stormy rumble that lingers
long after. This bow passes between champions from the
mighty ranger conclave of Storm Dancers, equal parts
graceful and chaotic in the right hands.
You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made
with this magic weapon, whose normal and long Stormcall
range double when fired in rainy or stormy weather.
Ammunition fired from this magic bow counts as magical
for purposes of overcoming resistance or immunity to
nonmagical attacks and damage.

This section presents items related to the work of
artisans, especially useful for characters who dabble in
the profession. Hidden behind many of these unassuming
tools, however, is a more sinister prupose. The original

Archrider’s Whistle
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement)

Minor Curse. No matter what you choose, the steed

leaves a trail of dim glowing footprints that fade after 10

Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement)
“No more coming in last - show off your athletic side with
this new line of speedy boots guaranteed to get you past
the finish line!”
While you wear these boots, your walking speed and
jump distance both increase by 10 feet.
Minor Curse. These boots are enchanted for
heightened speed, but not control. Whenever you end
your movement, you must travel at least 15 feet in a
straight line. If you do not finish your movement with a 15
foot straight line, you fall prone.

Boots of Bounding
Cloak of Disguise
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement)
“Who needs a hat of disguise when a cloak will do
basically the same thing for less than half the price? Get
one today at Xan Rockman’s Emporium because these
cloaks MUST GO before inspection month!”
While wearing this cloak, you can use an action to cast
the disguise self spell. The spell ends if the cloak is
removed. You can do this four times, and regain expended
uses when you finish a long rest.
Curse. This cloak is cursed, and becoming attuned to
it extends the curse to you. Its true name is the croak of
disguise. As long as you remain cursed, the item slowly
turns you into a frog. At the end of each long rest, if you
have expended a use of disguise self with this cloak, you
must make a Charisma saving throw. The DC is equal
to 8 + three times the number of uses of disguise self
expended since the previous long rest. On a failed save,
you gain one level of transformation, starting with the
lowest level.

the previous long rest, you reduce your transformation

 Cramwow
Wondrous item, uncommon
“Hi it’s Xan Rockman with the Cramwow. You’ll be saying
wow every time. A regular towel doesn’t work wet, this
works wet or dry. Cramwow can cram up to 12 times
its weight in liquid. Look at this, it just does the work.
Tell you what, if you buy a Cramwow right now, right
this moment, I will throw in a smaller Cramwow free of
charge, perfect for mopping up spilled drinks.”
When placed in any liquid, this towel slowly absorbs up
to 5 gallons of liquid, at a rate of 1 gallon per minute. A
creature holding this towel can use an action to wring it
out, releasing a gallon of absorbed liquid from it.
Minor Curse. No matter how much you try, this towel
always leaves behind 2 ounces of liquid.

Crown of Owl Command

Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement)
“Xan Rockman here! If you have ever dreamt of
befriending animals or becoming a druid, boy have I
got the thing for you. With this new crown, you can
now speak with the majestic owl and command it like
a familiar! I can even legally say it works one-hundred
Cramwow! percent of the time, guaranteed!”
While you wear this crown, you become aware of the
presence of any owls within 60 feet of you.
As a bonus action, you can attempt to control of any
owls you detect. A target must succeed on a DC 10
Charisma saving throw or fall under your control. Owls
with a CR of 1/8 or lower automatically fail this save. An
owl remains under your control until it is ever more than
60 feet away from you, or until it dies.
You can verbally issue commands to any owl you
control (no action required), who follows them to the best
of its ability. If you issue no commands, an owl takes the
Dodge action and uses its move to avoid danger or stay
within 60 feet of you. If the owl is commanded to enter
combat, it shares your initiative count, but takes its turn
immediately after yours.
Minor Curse. While attuned to this crown, you can
only speak in owl hoots. This speech prevents you from
casting spells with a verbal component, and no one can
understand your speech unless they have the ability to
speak with animals.

Dancer’s Boots
Wondrous item, uncommon
While wearing these boots, your jump distance increases
by 20 feet, and your jump height increases by 10 feet.
Minor Curse. While wearing these boots, you must

Box of Banded Aids This section includes stand-alone items that were not
released as part of any compendium in 2022.

Box of Banded Aids

Adventuring gear
This small leather box of adhesive medical strips are a
popular nonmagical aid on the battlefield. Combat medics
often carry several of these boxes to hand to common
soldiers not suffering from grevious wounds.
When first found, this box contains 2d4 bands. You can
use an action to apply a band to a living creature you
touch and make a DC 10 Wisdom (Medicine) check. If
you succeed, the creature regains 1d4 hit points. These
bands have no effect on constructs or undead.”
Glove of Blasting

Glove of Blasting
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement by a
spellcaster)
Arcane orange lines thread densely beneath the thin
leather of this glove, linked between circular gemstone
nodes from the wrist to fingertips. Each node pulses with
every charge absorbed from the spell, flickering with dim
unrefined energy. Despite the arcane power that flows
through the glove, it remains unnaturally cool to wear.
When you cast a spell of 1st-level or higher that
successfully deals fire damage to a target, the glove
siphons the excess arcane energy and gains 1 charge, up
to a maximum of 5 charges. When the glove as at least 3
charges, you can use an action to expend all of its charges
and cast scorching ray from it using your spell attack
bonus. The spell’s level is equal to number of charges
expended minus 1.

Heartbreaker
Weapon (rapier), rare (requires attunement)
A cracked pink diamond glimmers at the rose pommel
of this silver rapier. From the rose sprouts a rose gold
guard and grip, twisting into soft silver roots that crawl
up the blade. This rapier once belonged to a magnificent
hero bard known to cause unmendable sorrow wherever
they went. Contrary to expectations, its name did not
describe the bard’s romantic interactions, but rather their
propensity to produce widows.
When you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack
with this magic weapon, you deal an extra 1d8 psychic
Heartbreaker damage.
Sorrow Core. If you score a critical hit with this
weapon, the creature bleeds for 1 minute, provided it
is not undead or a construct. At the start of its turns, a
bleeding creature must make a DC 15 Constitution saving
throw, losing 1d4 hit points on a failed save and ending
the bleeding condition on a success.

 Long-Winded Great Axe

Long-Winded Great Axe

Weapon (great axe), uncommon
Originally forged as a vessel for a pirate’s
soul, this axe now exists as a simple sentient
weapon without a living body. Two ribbed
blades made of a turquoise steel, cut like a
scallop shell, sprout from this axe’s weeded,
gnarled handle.
This magic weapon has 3 charges and regains 1d3
expended charges daily at dawn. When you take the
attack action, you can expenda charge and replace one
of your attacks with a fan sweep of the weapon. A line of
strong wind 5 feet wide and 20 feet long extends from
you in a direction of your choice. Each Medium or smaller
creature in the line must succeed on a DC 15 Strength
saving throw or be pushed up to 15 feet in the direction
of the line. If a creature is within 5 feet of you when it
fails this save, it also takes 1d6 cold damage. Medium or
smaller objects are also pushed by the wind this way.
Sentience. Long-Winded Great Axe is a sentient
chaotic neutral weapon with an Intelligence of 9, a
Wisdom of 13, and a Charisma of 16). It has hearing and
normal vision out to a range of 120 ft, and communicates
audibly in a loud braggadocious voice such that creatures
within 60 feet of it can hear it. It can read, speak, and
understand Common.
A pirate captain named Phaedrus Highcrow resides in
this axe and always has a story to tell, earning him the
nickname of the Long-Winded Bard of the Topaz Sea.
After succeeding in achieving immortality (in a sense), he
is content to tell boisterous and greatly exaggerated tales
of his accomplishments whenever he is drawn, and offers
grating commentary on the wielder’s combat ability.

Rot
Weapon (scimitar), rare (requires attunement)
This weapon was allegedly forged by ancient battle mages
for the old Necromancy Civil Wars. The glassy edge of
this obsidian scimitar reflects like a mirror. The wicked
crack that runs the length of the blade pulses gently with
a sickly green in knowing response to nearby creatures.
You have +1 bonus to damage and attack rolls made with
this magic weapon.
Necroblade. Once per turn, when you deal damage to a
creature with this sword, the creatures take an additional
1d6 necrotic damage. If you have less than half your hit
points remaining, you deal an additional 2d6 necrotic Rot
damage instead.
